A New Railway Car.

C. w. Smith, of this city, has invented a
new railroad passenger car. 1t is practi-
cally indestructible and fire-proof. The
principal horror attendant upon several
railway disasters was the imprisonment Of
passengers by the timbers of wrecked cars,
where they have been held until flames
among the combustible material of which
the cars were constructed burned them to
death. Mr.. Smiths invention consists in
the material and method of construction.
A model has recently been constructed by
L. Peterson, at 25S Market street Another
model has been sent East, and a patent is
expected to issue in about a week. The
model at Mr.. Peterson's office shows the
shape of an ordinary passenger car. 1t is,
however, made up of very few pieces. The
top is of one piece, the bottom of one piece
and the two sides of one piece each. The
material to be used is boiler iron. The
pieces will be riveted together. An iron
angle helps to bind the pieces together at
the corners, top and bottom. Riyets run
through the angle, through the side of the
car and through an iron girder, which runs
lengthwise of and strengthens the car. 1t
is claimed that the car need not be heavier
than the ordinary car, and that it can be
made fully as ornamental. Telescoping
and destruction by fire are impossible The
seats may be filed with asbestos and COW
cred with embossed leather to be fire.

Over the Goals.

Santa Rosa Citizens Haul Contractor
Over the Goals.
SANTA Rosa, March 16th.-There was
great excitement in this city all day. Prom
inent and influential citizens from all parts
of the county were here earnestly discuss
ing the railroad question. John Walker,
President of he road, and contractor Waltz
failed toputin an appearance at the meeting,
and thereby reused the Indignation OF the
assembled citizens. A committee OF three
was appointed to wait on the above-named
gentlemen and request their immediate at
tendance at the meeting. In fifteen min
utes the committee returned, accompanied
by Messrs. Walker and Waltz Mr. Walker
excused his tardiness by stating that he un
derstood there was TO be no meeting, and
had no remarks to offer. Mr.. Waltz gave
every assurance of his intention to build
the road. He explained that he came in
possession of the contract at very late
date that he come here with the intention
of obtaining an extension of time in which
to begin work, but finding this useless he
had caused his engineers to go to work on
short notice. He complained that obstacles
had been placed in his way by people here,
thereby increasing his work.
On being called upon by prominent citi-
zens to give substantial assurance that he
would build the ROAD, Mr. waltz stated
that he had done all the work he could in
the brief time he had had, and that the re-
quest for assurance was an opposition
movement. He was assured that the peo-
pie had no prejudice against him, and that
all they required was for him to place
bonds in the Santa Rosa Bank as a guar
antee of his good faith and ability to build
the road Mr.. Waltz made assertions that
he could, if he wished, tie up the road so
it could not be built for years, and he was
Immediately challenged by the audience
to do so if he could.
Mayor Oyerton warned the speaker that,
if he did not give assurance in few days,
the San Francisco and North Pacific Rail
road was ready to give bonds and build the
road.
Colonel Mark L. Mcdonald stated that
he represented company that was anxious
to take the contract and build, and would
give any amount OF bonds to complete the
road in one year, and even have it in
running order in six months, but the sub
scribers toward the road must contract to
give the amount to the first company COM
ing forward to build the road.
1t was finally decided to adjourn until
next Wednesday, to give Waltz last
chance to furnish the required guarantee
to build the road.

LONDON, March 16th.-The Government
promise their coercion bill for Monday, and
till then there is to be lull in the prepara-
tons for the fight, which threatens to be
big and loud-sounding. 1t is Gladstone
himself, / understand, who will begin the
contest. He will traverse the coercion
policy of the Government on preliminary
motion for urgency THE grand old man.
is full of fight, and intends to throw him
self heart and soul into the struggle. He
has been preparing himself for the past
few weeks in a suburban retreat at DOLLS
Hill, which he has rented for the
purpose, and now is like giant
refreshed, in health and spirits, and
from tactical point of view pro-
fesses himself well pleased with the sit
uation, but especially with the position of
the Government He thinks the coercion
debate will afford him an excellent oppor-
tunity, of which be is determined to make
the most.
GLADsToNE's EXAMPLE
VIII be eagerly followed by his party, and
so we shall soon have an unwonted specta-
cle-a resistance to the Irish coercion bill,
led by the greatest English statesmen, and
mainly carried on by one of the two Eng
lish parties. The Irish members were, of
course, held aloof as much as possible, in
order to give their English allies free
hand in their novel and arduous task.
Hitherto the invariable practice of both
English parties-when the Irish coercion
bill was laid on the table-has been to for
get their antagonisms for the holy pur-
pose, and unite and force it through.
THE DISTRESSED MUGwUMPs.
The Government are also thinking of in
PRODUCING in the House of Lords, concur
rently with the introduction of tie coer-
cion bill in the Commons, sort of emas-
culated edition of the Parnell land bill
Their idea seems to be to manage their
land legislation by installments. First,
they will bring in bill giving the country
Court Judges the power to stay the execu-
ton Of evictions, and later on, will attempt
the passage of their wholesale purchase
scheme. The concurrent introduction of
the remedial and coercive measures will
be a concession to the fears of the Liberal
Unionist supporters of the Government.
These unhappy politicians are in the
direst alarm and distress at having to
vote for coercion, which they distinctly
pledged themselves against before the elec-
ton, and they hope that by insisting on
land bill at the same time will put them
right before the country. This is grasping
at straw to save themselves from the po-
litical drowning that awaits when the
country is next appealed to.
One of the most prominent of these
British mugwumps-o one of their whips, in
fact-Mr. Caine, was last night hooted from
the platform by his own constituents, and
pelted with snowballs when he left the
meeting There is nothing but wavering
and CONSERVATION in the ranks of this i'll
attired party, whose shifts and decisions
will be one of the most interesting features
of the coming struggle over coercion.

Los ANGELES, March 16th.-Dr. Simpson,

to have vented some of his spleen against
Los Angeles in an interview regarding the

fact the doctors OF the State Board came
here to find fault, and prepared to make an
unfavorable report, but they found nothing
TO warrant the statements of DR.. Simpson.
When he says the press attempted to si-
lence the matter and keep ii quiet, he sim
ply shows that he don't know what he is
taking about. The truth of the matter is,
there is not the slightest cause for alarm
on account of smallpox in Los Angeles,
and none is felt Adverse reports have not
affected the city in the least degree.

SAN Francisco, March 16th.-A large
crowd was present to-day at the close Of the
trial of John e. Steites, the railroad strike er
and dynamite fend. Judge Hunt in his
charge to the jury. defined the legal mean
ing Of the term attempt" as used in the
Indictment. He said it was not necessary
in order to prove an attempt to put dy-
Mantle bomb on the track of the railway,
that the defendant should be caught plac-
ing it there, or that he should even be in
the immediate vicinity of the track. 1t was
sufficient to show that he had definite in
tention to place the bomb where it would
do damage to the track. The fact that he
had the bomb in his possession at an early
hour in the morning, and that he ran
away from the policemen, were strong evi-
dence to prove an intention, which
amounted to an attempt.
The jury retired at half-past 10 o'clock,
and returned in eight minutes with YER
dict OF guilty. The prisoner did not seem
to be at I'll disturbed by the verdict, but his
wife was considerably affected. He will be

BERLIN, March 16th.-The church bill,
as passed by the Commission of Oberhaus,
grants religious orders restitution of their
properties. The report of the Commission
will be placed before the Chamber on Fri
day next. The measure fails to conciliate

have been formulated by DR.. Windthorst
These are that the permission accorded in
the. bill to form Bishoprics in Limbourg
and Osnabruck be extended to other
dioceses, including Cologne, Breslau, Nun
ster and Ermel, and that the bill shall
strictly limit and define the powers of the
State to veto clerical appointments, and
that the discretionary powers of the Minis
ter of Worship over the re-entry of reli-
gious orders be defined and limited DIR.
Windthorst declares that there can be no
peace between the Church and State unless
these demands shall be conceded.
